deko's position on the war in Ukraine

The player's only reaction pertained exclusively to the impact of sanctions on his esports career and the inability to compete at international championships. On March 16, 2022, deko published a post on his Telegram channel:
i just now realized that i'm russian and we won't play at tournaments for sh*t now, looking for a girl from ukraine to marry and get ukrainian citizenship ✌🏻 but in reality, i have f**k knows what will happen next =))
